Lenten Lunches at Christ Church - Join Us Every Sunday During Lent!
As we embark on this sacred season of Lent, Christ Church is delighted to invite you to our Lenten Lunches, which will be held every Sunday during Lent at 12:15pm—right after our morning service, which starts at 10:30am. This cherished tradition is a wonderful opportunity for our church family and the wider community to come together, reflect, and enjoy a simple meal in fellowship.
Our morning service, open to all, is a time for prayer, worship, and reflection as we journey through the season of Lent. It’s a meaningful way to start your Sunday, focusing on the spiritual aspects of Lent as we prepare our hearts for Easter. Following the service, we invite you to stay for our Lenten Lunch.
The lunch itself will consist of a simple but nourishing meal— soup and bread—served in the spirit of humility and simplicity that Lent encourages. It’s a reminder of the core values of Lent: reflection, self-denial, and community. There is something truly special about sitting down to share a simple meal together, offering us a time to pause and reflect on the Lenten season’s call to focus on the important things in life.
The act of gathering as a community, sharing food, and engaging in conversation deepens our connections with one another and with God. Lent is traditionally a time of self-examination, prayer, and renewal, and we hope that our Lenten Lunches will provide a space for you to experience these practices in a tangible way. Whether you’re giving something up for Lent or taking on something new to grow in your faith, these lunches are a perfect way to nurture both body and spirit.
Everyone is welcome! Whether you're a long-time member of Christ Church or someone looking to join us for the first time, we'd love for you to be part of this journey. This is a wonderful chance to meet new people, catch up with familiar faces, and deepen your spiritual reflection in a relaxed, welcoming environment.
There is no charge for the lunch, though donations are appreciated to support our ongoing work within the church and community. If you’ve never joined us before, now is the perfect time to start!
In addition to the lunches, the morning service offers a time of worship and reflection that helps set the tone for the day. We encourage you to join us for the service at 10:30am, where we’ll come together to pray, listen to scripture, and consider the meaning of Lent in our lives today. Afterward, we’ll move into a more informal setting for lunch and fellowship.
This Lent, let’s take time to walk together as a community, sharing both our faith and our food as we prepare for the great celebration of Easter. Whether you’re a regular attendee or just curious to learn more, we warmly invite you to join us for this time of reflection, nourishment, and fellowship.
We look forward to seeing you there and sharing this meaningful Lenten journey with you!
